Just a quick update to say that the second boutique went well. I didn’t lose any rings (haven’t found any yet) and made enough to cover my table space and a little more. I sold 34 items and the set up and organization was much smoother. Even the banner came out a little better spaced.
I am spending today in the studio (well, except for right now) putting everything away and starting on some new projects. I got quite a few ideas from folks as they came by asking for things I either didn’t have or only had a limited selection. I didn’t have anyone tell me that the prices were too high and everyone said how much they admired my creativeness. What more can you ask for?
There are still some Christmas cards left on the Etsy site but one of the things I’m lacking is Hanukkah cards. I won’t be able to get them ready for this year but they will definitely be in the shop next year. Hope you have a wonderful rest of your weekend. Pretty soon it will be December and I’ll be starting the December Reflections with Susannah Conway as I usually do. You should join us.

You’re welcome. It looks very creative…my mind went to “Wonder if I could think of that many little things to put in each pocket?” The challenge of that idea is fun!

Some are spaces for pictures too and I have put some little Christmas sayings and embellishments but yeah, the hardest part is decorating it!

Thanks Becky! I got it for my husband a few years ago to wear to a Christmas party.

That’s fantastic to hear. Sounds like you are doing what many “big businesses” don’t: listen to your customers’ wishes! Do you have their contact data so you can actually send them the link to your Etsy once the products are ready?

That’s actually something I have to get better at, getting people’s emails to create a mailing list when I have new products out. I give out my business card all the time but don’t get their info. Thanks for the reminder.
